RAK Free Zone backs Pakistan IT show

Ras Al Khaimah Free Trade Zone has signed up as a silver sponsor of the 9th ITCNAsia, the biggest IT and telecom show in Pakistan.

The exhibition, which will be held in Karachi from August 11-13, showcases the most powerful brands of the world and their latest products and services.

“This event, where we can witness first-hand the latest technologies and solutions in action, is the ideal meeting ground for both Ras Al Khaimah and Pakistan to explore how we can further support each other,” says RAK FTZ CEO Oussama El Omari.

“We at RAK FTZ wish to see Pakistan emerge among the world's top global industries, and this is possible through strategic international expansion which RAK FTZ in the UAE can provide,” he adds.

The sponsorship is part of RAK FTZ’s goal to support SMEs. To further pursue this, RAK FTZ will be offering a special sign-up discount for the free zone’s ‘Special Business Package’ for only Rs440,000  during the ITCNAsia exhibition. Shared facilities are an ideal entry level package that gives clients complete office facilities and license to operate in the UAE, complemented by RAK FTZ’s customised service. 

Companies from Asia make up the bulk of RAK FTZ clients, with registrations at an all-time high of 41 per cent. With ITCNAsia presenting an ideal opportunity for exhibitors to create business-to-business alliances, RAK FTZ is strategically placed to help Pakistani companies seeking international expansion, said El Omari.
